365 Difficult Ways To Live
Chapter 168
On the bulletin board of the organization the next day, a notice was posted: Ma Tianshan violated the points system and violated the rules.The points were confiscated and downgraded to the third level. After being exposed, he felt deeply ashamed and committed suicide in fear of crime. His position as the first level supervisor will be taken over by Mu Han.
Xia Yihan succeeded in taking the position, and several other high-scoring members were dissatisfied. Although they now know that the three massage chairs were cheated out, if you add the 1 points and her current status as the overlord of the ring, even If you don't take the second-in-command position immediately, you will succeed in time. The dean must have a long-term plan for making such a decision.
Although they all understood the truth, they just couldn't swallow their old-fashioned words. They were picky about Xia Yihan's qualifications, thinking that she would have to hang around for a few more years.
Xia Yihan was very clear about their dissatisfaction. In order to reassure them and calm down their emotions, he took advantage of a training opportunity to gather them together and have a one-on-one duel in turn.
In front of everyone, she put them down one by one, and finally said: "It's this level, should we consider increasing the intensity of training?"
After several senior figures climbed to high positions, they managed to live a comfortable life. They were afraid of going through the initial devil training again, so they kept quiet. Once they took a break, no one raised any objections to Xia Yihan's position.
There was no noise in her ears, and Xia Yihan was happy and quiet, but although she was already a king, she was not proficient in business, so Brother Cheng took her to "practice" for three months.
In the past, he was only vaguely aware of it, but now getting along with Brother Cheng confirmed Xia Yihan's thoughts - Brother Cheng is indeed the eyeliner arranged by the dean in the organization, although his people are everywhere in this building, but He still has eyes and ears, so that even though he is not in the base camp, he knows no less than them.
The orphanage is densely covered with surveillance, but Xia Yihan later learned that there are not many surveillance cameras that are normally activated, just to scare newcomers. After all, there are a lot of shady things in the building.
After Xia Yihan took the senior management position, she stood tall and saw far away, and the things she came into contact with became wider and wider. It was a colorful black—before she only knew how to fight and kill, but now that she has more power and space, she started In contact with guns, guns, ammunition, drugs, drugs, trafficking, selling, illegal, prohibited smuggling, smuggling, prostitution, prostitution, pornography, general organizations will not directly engage in the corresponding business, but are responsible for transfer, transportation and protection .
A huge criminal network appeared in front of Director Xia, wrapping her tightly within it.
It may be that she has been in the same class for too long, or that she was born a criminal. Xia Yihan didn't feel uncomfortable. In the later stage, she even felt that she could mix in the mud with ease - not only did she not get out of the mud without being polluted, but she was worse than the mud. Sewage.
She puts interests first and does her job well. As for the moral and legal issues involved, it is not within her scope of consideration.
She often thinks that maybe she will sink into it, become one of the grids, and merge with the criminal network, if she doesn't have a belief.
She has never forgotten Mu Shangqing and the murder scene three years ago. Even if she is in the bottomless gutter, she still has to work hard to climb up and give Mu Shangqing a bright future.
She deliberately climbed to the top position, in order to facilitate her own investigation.
She committed crimes unscrupulously and charged for the organization in order to confuse her companions, making them think that she had been numb, forgotten, completely assimilated, and integrated into the organization.
After serving as a first-level supervisor for a year, she believed that she had gained everyone's trust, so she embarked on a career of revenge—starting from her roommate.
Xia Yihan slowly worked hard, from the initial greeting to an in-depth conversation, the two of them finally became roommates from nodding acquaintances.
She is quite slow to respond to feelings, but she is good at observing and can detect the emotional changes of the other party.She observed that although her roommate, Aya, was not good at words, and had faint law marks across her face, she looked sinister and stern, but she was actually not a city man, and she was not good at covering up.
She used to be an economic criminal who was chased all over the world by the police. Later, she saw a recruitment notice in the black market that could provide asylum, so she came here. In exchange, she needed to work for the organization.
Aya came back for less time, but every time he came back, Xia Yihan would care about her experience outside, and the two gradually became friends.Later, Xia Yihan asked her to teach him computer skills - she wanted to expand her criminal business.
Xia Yihan is a fast learner, especially when it comes to crimes. With a little guidance, she can gallop on the avenue of crime.
The big net of the black market also spread out in front of her.In the black market, you can buy a piece of personal data for 1 cent, and you can hack into WiFi for 40 yuan to obtain private information. The information involved includes personal name, phone number, ID number, home address, and even marriage and pregnancy status. Everything is available.
Immersed in the huge torrent of information, Xia Yihan felt unbelievable. Nowadays, with the development of the Internet, the popularization of the real-name system, facial recognition can be seen everywhere, and the leakage of information is inevitable, but she did not expect that it has reached this level. luxury.
The leaked information may be the masterpiece of information dealers and hackers, or it may be a complicated website that packages and sells the registrant's information. After several circulations, it is listed on the Internet for sale.
However, the leakage of information is convenient for criminals like her to take advantage of it.
She began to search for the mysterious organization and entered its address, but found that only the names of a few businesses were displayed, and the psychological counseling room of the public security organ was upstairs.
Xia Yihan verified the name of the merchant and found it to be true, but this psychological counseling room seemed a bit deceptive.
She recalled the note in Mu Shangqing's bedroom: Supernormal Person Research and Investigation Director X.
She tried to search for its information, but still found nothing.
Xia Yihan was not reconciled, she remembered that Mu Shangqing said in a dream: Chu Dongren killed him.
She locked her target on "Chu Dongren", and now relevant information finally appeared, but the only credible one is her study experience from university to doctoral degree. After graduation, Chu Dongren worked as a professor at the Academy of Sciences University. for the cognitive nerves.After that, he joined the Public Security Department of Wangjiang Province and was responsible for the criminal psychology research project that the Public Security Department cooperated with the university.
But nine years ago, his position changed and he became the head of the psychological counseling room of the provincial department.
Xia Yihan could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with this position. A dignified professor of the Academy of Sciences, after more than ten years, became the head of the consulting room?It's like being a leader in the student union and youth league committee for many years, and finally became a psychological committee member of the class?
Xia Yihan was sure that this position was just a cover to cover up his true identity.
And his real identity is the Director of Supernormal Person Research and Investigation Division!
The name of the organization is quite strange, and there is a stroke of the second wind, and it is so mysterious that no information can be found on the black market, which means that it has never been registered on the Internet, nor has it been publicly discussed by any website media, and even The private information is also completely clean-this shows that the secrecy of it has risen to the national level.
Things that are kept secret are not necessarily shady, but things that are shady must be kept secret.
Mu Shangqing had been working in the investigation office for four years before the accident, and his mental state gradually became abnormal. In the end, he was killed by five strangers, and the public security agency announced that he was missing.
Xia Yihan's prediction was: the investigation department was inseparably related to Mu Shangqing's death, and the director of the department might be the mastermind behind the scenes.
She began to collect all the information about him, and one of them caught her attention--the fascinating research involved neuroscience, psychoanalysis, and psychological research.
She recalled Xiaomei's death.Three years ago, on May 5, Xiaomei entered the office of Wang Tong, the head teacher, and drowned in the river that evening.
She believed that Wang Tong did not physically punish Xiaomei, but must have said something, a form of mental influence.
Then, Xia Yihan followed this line and turned Chu Dongren upside down. Although his position was a mystery, he always used his ID card when he went out to stay in hotels or take high-speed trains.
Xia Yihan discovered that in October four years ago, Chu Dongren stayed in a hotel in Luoyu City, and He Lan, the registered shareholder of the hotel, was one of the murderers who killed Mu Shangqing three years ago.
The other murderer, Hu Bin, and Chu Dongren attended a medical seminar at the same time, and they should also know each other.
There was another murderer named Bo Rui'an who lived upstairs from Chu Dongren.
The other two murderers, Xue Jinping and Gong Yanhua, are not sure if they know Chu Dongren, but among the five murderers, three have been in contact with Chu Dongren...It is really intriguing.
Xia Yihan wanted to check again, but there was no more information. She felt a fire burning in her heart, and she didn't know where to put it, so she went all out and checked Mu Shangqing, her mother Huang Nan, and her grandmother Zhou Lanxin. I checked it myself.
She controlled herself and didn't check the orphanage. There would be browsing records on the computer, but she could check the dead, so she checked Ma Tianshan.
The relevant content is a missing person notice, which was issued by the orphanage. A boy named Ma Tianshan has disappeared and his whereabouts are still unknown.
Xia Yihan's hand that slid the mouse paused for a moment, but only for a moment, the information flashed by,
She turned off the computer.
The Internet can be vast and boundless, or it can be narrow and limited. Even if the ashes-level information is dug out, it cannot form a complete chain of facts, and you still need to investigate it yourself.
Xia Yihan wanted to leave the orphanage more and more, she had to get rid of the organization's control and move freely.
But it is not easy to get rid of. Here, whether it is a child begging or a first-level supervisor, they are all woven into a large monitoring network. The organization has regulations. When going out, there must be more than two people who supervise each other. If one of them If he escapes, the other has to be responsible for finding him; if two people run away together, the entire organization will find them both.
Xia Yihan has been waiting for the opportunity.She stayed in the organization for two years. During these two years, she not only learned fighting, but also network technology, anti-stalking methods, and survival stunts. , to complete the most staunch survival.
Most importantly, she learned to hibernate.
She has been waiting for the opportunity and has been preparing.Escaping is only the first step. After leaving this gate, she still needs to survive. She needs money, an ID card, a stable source of income, and she needs to be cautious. The farther she goes, the more she escapes from this city. the better.
During these three years, Xia Yihan saw someone run away, but within a few days, he was caught and returned, and that person disappeared from then on.
So once you decide to escape, you have to promise that you will never return to this building.
Relying on the convenience brought by power, Xia Yihan has been secretly hiding cash, because online payment is unreliable and too easy to be traced; she kept the false information provided by the organization during a mission, and wrote down the code words of arms transactions on the black market in detail And ways, so that after escaping, there are weapons for self-defense at any time.
And these are just one aspect, not comprehensive enough.
Once she escapes, the organization will definitely do everything in its power to catch her, and may even offer a high reward for her head. She knows that the dean is in this city, and he can be said to be able to cover the sky.After she escaped, the hotel she stayed in, the clothing store she passed by, and even the policemen she met might be her spy, reporting her whereabouts to the organization and arresting her back.
Xia Yihan has been collecting and organizing people or places with transactions or contacts, trying to avoid them as much as possible when escaping, but she feels that this network is too wide and too large, even covering the entire city.Instead of being timid and cautious on the outside, it is better to hit the key point and muddy it from the inside.
Normally, Xia Yihan is in charge of fighting competitions or training management within the organization, but in the last period of time, she kept claiming that she was injured and unable to compete, and took the initiative to carry out external tasks.
During a mission involving a casino, she finally got her chance.
There is a man in the casino who is a regular customer and often cheats, but there are people behind him, and the casino owner is not convenient to come forward in person, so he hires them to solve the problem.
The original agreement was that after the person was caught, he would be taught a lesson, told to spit out the money from the cheating pit, and then let him go.
But Xia Yihan turned big this time, intentionally provoking the other party, insulting the other party's boss, and severely wounding the old man.
On the way back in the car, Brother Cheng was very strange. The feeling Xia Yihan gave her was always lukewarm. Even if something big happened, she would not be surprised at all. , and never explode.
This time it was very different. Not only did he strike too hard, but he also committed a taboo, calling names and insulting the opponent's boss.
Brother Cheng asked, "Do you have any grudge against him?"
Xia Yihan looked angry: "She was the one who insulted our boss first!"
Brother Cheng didn't speak, he couldn't refute this reason.Reported to the dean, the dean may still feel that she is loyal.
After a period of time, Xia Yihan went out frequently, and even deliberately passed outside the casino.
Finally one day, she noticed that someone was following her.They go out to work, which often involves conflicts and fights, so they must always pay attention to whether someone is following them. If they find that the situation is not right, they will not return to the orphanage. So as not to lead the war back to the nest.
This time she found someone following her, instead of avoiding it, she even brought back the tail behind her.
Before entering the door, she turned around to find that the stalker was gone.
In the next few days, she didn't go out again, but prepared her weapon to prevent mutations.
On the evening of November 11st, this night, the biggest riot occurred since Xia Yihan joined the organization.
Xia Yihan succeeded in taking the position, and several other high-scoring members were dissatisfied. Although they now know that the three massage chairs were cheated out, if you add the 1 points and her current status as the overlord of the ring, even If you don't take the second-in-command position immediately, you will succeed in time. The dean must have a long-term plan for making such a decision.
